I have spent more than forty years working in education – including classroom teacher, administrator, district chief information officer, school board member, technology consultant, and founder of an online high school. I had the pleasure of spending a couple of hours in a one-on-one meeting with Tracy talking about education.
I asked her, “What is the single most significant factor in determining a student’s success in school?” She responded, “The student’s home environment.” According to the research – overwhelmingly the correct answer. I then asked her what the biggest factor in the classroom was. She replied, “Keeping the students engaged in learning.” Right again. Very impressive. Though these are the correct answers, they are not the answers you usually hear.

The new Sheetz will have expanded space for indoor and outdoor seating for restaurant customers who order quick-service food — sandwiches, buffalo wings, and fries — the company has become known for.

Have you ever taught middle school? Does the thought of it make you cringe?
On a daily basis, there is an abundance of name calling, raging hormones, finger pointing, dirty tricks and excuses, excuses, excuses. No, I’m not talking about Richmond politics – but I easily could be.
It is my pleasure to write this letter as a supporter of Justin Wilk, who is running for School Board in Prince William County. As a parent, I strongly support Justin because he was an amazing motivator that taught in our school district for six years. Justin Wilk was my daughter’s 7th grade Civics and Economics teacher, at Woodbridge Middle School, Woodbridge, VA.
Justin Wilk always displayed a unique style of teaching, which motivated his students, beyond the time they spent in his classroom. In addition to teaching in the classroom, Justin Wilk coached hundreds of students in track, football, and served as an advisor to the Drama Club, and is now a consultant. As a consultant; he has help administrators to promote transparency; and improved community relations.

I first met Justin when I attended Woodbridge Middle School in 2007.
Justin was my track coach throughout middle school and my Civics teacher in the 7th grade, when he became a close personal friend to my family and myself. Justin was able to teach me many things throughout my three years in middle school, whether it was in the classroom or on the track, but there was one thing specifically he said to me that I have never forgotten.

I write in strong support of Paul B. Ebert for our Commonwealth Attorney.
Mr. Ebert’s opponent is Mike May. How many criminal jury trials has Mr. May been lead counsel on? Is it 50 or none?
